In July, local candidates from all parties running for state office were invited to pledge their support to reform voter registration in Wisconsin by establishing a statewide system of automatic voter registration. The pledge received cross-partisan support from Republican, Democratic, and Green party candidates. Candidates who pledged their support for automatic voter registration have been invited to participate in the forum.
